The BDA promotes and supports organised training to ensure that those in drilling are not left to fend for themselves in acquiring correct knowledge and skill. The law makes it a duty for Employers to properly train their workforces. The absence of documented training records is a major hurdle when it comes to a company having to defend itself following an accident.
The best training for future Lead Drillers is that provided by the BDA Land Drilling Apprenticeship – this contains formal off-the-job training courses and supervised on-the-job training. This course is recommended for those in the early stages of their drilling careers.
